Dressing room
Bonjour my dear! I am Madam Bouffant and welcome to the Radacadabra Wardrobe! This is where we make and keep all the costumes and where the dancers get ready to go on stage.
Making costumes
Did you know that designing and making costumes is a very important part of a production? At the start of every production I meet up with the director or choreographer to discuss the overall feel of the play or dance piece. I then study the script and research the time that the production is set so as to understand the style that the costume should be designed in. After sketching the costume designs I work with a team of costume makers who turn my sketches into real costumes! I am always looking for inspiration for new costumes so you will often see me with my note pad and camera.
